**Note: SPA Groups are only for Social Anxiety Sufferers (and those with related problems like APD, enmeshment anxiety, social phobia, painful shyness and/or paruresis) and our support groups are stricltly non-professional and peer-led in nature.
**But we do use a recovery program that works and we encourage Social Anxiety sufferers to try our groups!
PLEASE ALSO NOTE: Psychology students who wish to use the groups for a 'learning experience', recruiters for therapists and other non-social anxiety sufferers are NOT allowed to attend.
**We are not anti-therapy at all--
But we cannot play favorites with specific therapists or make individual referrals to them. Nor do we debate the comparative merits of different therapy approaches in our groups. We are primarliy a self-paced, 12 Step program for Social Anxiety recovery with only anecdotal and personal sharing of other non-12 Step self-help methods without debate. **People who try to use our groups for reasons other than personal recovery will be asked to leave.
